New work Nicole Beutler

Lost is my quiet forever is the conscious misinterpretation of a baroque opera. Following the exact position of things (2005) and Enter Ghost (2006), Nicole Beutler concludes her trilogy with an examination of qualities associated with the baroque period: theatricality, opulence, festiveness, instability, unpredictability, restlessness and anguish. Together with five performers and two singers Beutler creates a rigid structure. But movement seeps through, transgressing the boundaries of the rational, seeking ongoing emotional expansion and intense physical experience - for performer and spectator alike.

Première: 18 September 2008 Theater Frascati in de Brakke Grond, Amsterdam
